Getting Started - Quick Install & Test
This guide provides important safety information which should be read

algo.
5. Enter the IP address or the domain name for the SIP server into the SIP Domain
field under the BASIC SETTINGS > SIP tab.
6. Enter the credentials (SIP Extension, Authentication ID, and Password) for the
Page and/or Ring extension. Leave the credentials blank for either extension if
there is no intended use to have both registered.
Note: The Authentication ID may also be called Username for some SIP servers,
and in some cases may be the same as the SIP extension.
7. Verify the extension is properly registered with the SIP server in the Status tab.
Ensure the SIP Registration is "Successful".

telephone. The speaker should auto-answer, play the default pre-annouce audio
file, and open a speech path.
